How can I stop gaining weight on copaxone?

Please help! I started copaxone in February 2018. It makes me feel bloated and I am gaining weight. I've always been the same size, about 133 lbs. in two months I'm up 5 lbs even though I go to the gym more and have reduced my food intake and eat extremely healthy, lots of veggies, lots of lean protein like tuna chicken salmon.  Yogurt,  nuts, power bars. No red meat and some fruit. If I gain 5 lbs every two months I'll be up 30 lbs by the end of my first year on copaxone. Am I eating wrong? Should I eat less protein and up my carbs? Please help! I work and want to stay in the same size I've been in. I am a female 55 if that helps. Thanks
